I am no longer Saskatoon's worst bodger.
I yield up the title to our new home's PO.
My wife and I just moved into a modest bungalow because the 4 sets of stairs in our previous home
were getting hard to cope with, one flight up from the kitchen/dining/lounge level to use the washroom or one flight down to watch TV and
yet another flight down to do the laundry or use the other bathroom.
Finding our new home's main floor bathroom only had a hand-held shower I re-upped my soldering skillsand did the appropriate upgrade.
So far, so good.
Then the basement bathroom's shower started to dribble at the bath outlet but otherwise stopped doing anything.
Inspection showed this:-
Pex into copper into pex into that grey pex that ain't recommended into a brass shower fitting and yes!
the copper tee is the shower feed going sideways. And it's no longer working.
Gawdelpus!
